MINISTER ONGOING FORMATION

For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? ” —Romans 10:13-15 

Seeking to deepen your ministry experience and share it with those you serve?  Minister formation programs help parishioners active in ministries deepen and grow their Faith.
